Jun 8, 2017RETROFIT SNOW GUARDS - CALCULATING THE "REACH":When retrofit snow guards are used on existing roofs, they are typically installed without removing any slates or tiles. The notched shank snowguards have a limited "reach" however, and if your nails are too high, you won't be able to reach them to hook the snowguard into place.

Corrugated Metal

We sell a variety of snow guards and roof snow retention devices specifically made for corrugated metal roofs, either for new construction or on existing roofs (retrofit). We have the largest selection of snowguards and rails on the internet!

Can be mechanically fastened or soldered (if copper). Can also be mounted on corrugated roof panels. Available in Copper (SGCPS) or Stainless Steel (SGSSS).

Affordable protection for your gutter, foundation, shrubbery, automobiles or pedestrians, these snow guards are ideal for mounting on corrugated or flat roof panels. Both these snow guards will last forever and the copper ones can be soldered to a copper roof. Mechanically fasten using stainless steel screws and an adhesive. They have 8 3/4 square inches of snow stopping area and a 1 inch X 2 inch flat mounting area. Four inch wide face, two inch long base (where it contacts the roof), sits 2 3/4 inches up from the roof. Two mounting holes.

The CorGards are made from raw steel. They’re designed to rust like most corrugated panels they’re installed on (although you can order them painted). They're a great fitting and strong snow protection option for any corrugated steel roof. The CorGard Snow Guard is an exceptionally strong metal roof snow guard and has been designed for use on 7/8 inch profile corrugated metal roof panels. The CorGard fastens through the top of the corrugation rather than through the bottom of the corrugation to reduce water ponding and eliminates the possibility of leaking around fasteners. Use gasketed screws and an adhesive sealant.
